    Green Day. August 9, 2009.
    It was so amazing. I was like right up there by the stage and I've never been in a moshpit were everyone just felt connected to each other. It was beautiful. Not to mention they are the most entertaining beings on the planet. I was laughing pretty much the whole time. And when Billie came out to finish up the show with just an acoustic guitar, I melted. It was love.

    The Used. November 7, 2009.
    I met Quinn and Dan. So that instantly made it a favorite. And out of all the moshpits I've been in, that was the first one that I got injured in. I had a bleeding eyelid, no eyelashes on my right eye, and a minor concussion. It. Rocked. So. Hard. Bert sounds absolutely amazing live. And the 25 year-old who pretended to be my brother was pretty rad too. Used fans are fucking hilarious. I loved being a part of it.

    Fall Out Boy June 20, 2007
    My first concert and moshpit. It holds a huge place in my heart. I met William Beckett at the t-shirt stand. He's even more beautiful in person. And every note Patrick sang was just bliss. Pete was a funny little asshole, as always. And this was back when Cobra was barely known so hardly anyone was there in the pit while they were playing. It felt amazing. Also, a clip of Pete and Dirty sliding down a tarp on the huge hill at the stadium was in Live in Phoenix. tehe

    FOXY SHAZAM! March 22, 2010.
    Tonight was fucking INSANE! Eric was bouncing off the walls. (literally, he climbed on the cieling) I got water all over me. He leaned over me and stage dived. I got a big hug from Sky and Daisy gave me a fist bump. Eric was BUTT NAKED towards the end and humped half the band. lmfao
    They are seriously crazy awesome. Oh and Eric took 100 bucks from the merch table and threw it at the crowd. I got a dollar. tehe

    I know a lot of people probably hate them but, Three Days Grace (Dec 17th, 2009) put on an amazing concert!
    I didn't like them that much, I mainly went to see The Used, but when I saw them perform, I was awe struck. It was bloody amazing. Now I'm constantly listening to them.

    I saw Sea Wolf and The Album Leaf last month. I've been to a lot of really good concerts in my life... but this was truly, the first non-metal concert I've been too. I saw Jimmy LaValle in person... and oh how I wish I could have worked up the courage to ask for his autograph, or something. I didnt have anything for him to sign! xD

    That concert changed my life... It was an unexplainable experience.

    First rock concert and it was sooooo much fun. Shit seats, but I was with my two best friends, so I could care less. Everyone was amazing live. <3

    4/29/09 Fall Out Boy, All Time Low, Cobra Starship, Hey Monday, Metro Station
    I am a devoted Fall Out Boy fan and this was my first/ last time seeing them. Because my mom is amazing (she was wicked sick but waited two hours in line for us while friends and I were at the show), I got to meet them. Literally, I was sooooo happy I cried. After I met them. Aha but it was really the best moment of my life. Never forget it.

    Lastly: 12/3/09 All Time Low, Hey Monday, We The Kings, Friday Night Boys
    Best concert ever. Everyone was fantastic live. I don't even like FNB but I had a great time because the lead singer is gorgeous and kept winking at me cuz I was about 2 feet infront of the stage. Then a fat girl and all her fat friends fell on me, so I had to get out. But when ATL came on, it was... I don't know. I am in LOVE with them. Great live. And my friend Anna had a bra that I threw on stage. The PA broke and they had a 10 minute goof off. Jack wore her bra on stage and we died. <3 Then Alex came into the crowd to play a song and he had to walk by the bar, where we were at. First time, I got to touch his shoulder. Then he went back and he said he loved me XD I know it's silly, but it was huge for me. Best concert ever by far.

    Kerrang! Tour: All Time Low, The Blackout, Young Guns & My Passion, 31st January 2010, Leeds Academy.
    I always say how disappointed I was with ATL on this night, but overall I had a lot of fun. It was the first gig I'd been to with my sister for months, so it was bound to be fun. We missed most of My Passion, but Young Guns were amazing as ever. The Blackout were entertaining and just brilliant, plus the sitting down on the floor thing during Save Ourselves caused a lot of laughter. It's the most fun I've had at a gig for a while.

    Heaven's Basement, 5th March 2010, Nottingham Rock City.
    This was one of those mega last minute things. My dad adores one of the support bands they had, and he wanted me and my mum to see them so we had to go. I'd only downloaded Heaven's Basement's EP a couple of weeks before, but I really liked them. And they lived up to all expectations, they were incredible. And to say their original singer walked out a couple of days prior to this particular show, it was really something. The guy they hand standing in was amazing, and because I wasn't overly familiar with them at first, I didn't even realise he wasn't the original bloke. The supports were good too, and I met The Crave, who all remembered my dad from the last time he met them. It was a really fun night.

    March 27th, 2010. Yes it was recent. Rick Springfield. He went out into the crowd and his shirt got ripped by a crazy fangirl, and that's when I realized 60 year old men can have a great body. In Love

    Three Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin, and Flyleaf. February 16, 2010.

    This was the best night of my life. All 3 bands were fucking amazing, especially Three Days Grace. They're my favorite band of all-time, and Adam Gontier is my hero. The show was great, they played most of my favorite songs. For one of their last songs, the crowd was allowed to make a request. Adam said "I'm sorry guys, but we can't play Riot tonight." We all started to boo him. "Eh I'm just fucking with ya!"

    Oh and he also said "We released a new album in September, how many of you have it?" *I raised my hand* 'Well, you need it. I don't care if you buy it, copy it, burn it, or steal it."

    Just, yeah... I got to see my favourite band live, and they were amazing. Plus, my view was amazing too, and I got to call my girlfriend during Disarm Me. <3

    Download festival last year would have to come as my second favourite. xD
    My favourite acts were The 69 Eyes and Motley Crue. <3 Even though I literally couldn't see the Crue, it was still epic. I had an amazing view for The 69 Eyes, though. Was a couple of rows from the front, in the middle too. :)

    Green Day. Just... nothing will ever compare. Nothing. I fucking love that band and to see them live was a dream come true. And to touch Mike's bass and be in Billie's eyeline screaming the words to Going to Pasalaqua while no one else knew wtf he was singing... just... nothing. Nothing will ever beat that.

    Three Days Grace

    The live show they put, it's more than amazing. And yes, they were my favorite band when I saw them, but still, it was more than amazing.

    Fun.

    At a festival with Hunter Hayes and Watsky that were both amazing and meeting Watsky was more than amazing too, but Fun. Ohmygod, they are the best live band i've ever seen in my band. And the fact that Nate was so shocked to see how much we were (and we were like 3000) that he cried of happiness helps with the worshiping but, it was still the best thing i've ever seen.

    The Backstreet Boys
    Because I seen them in 2013 and they were still as energetic as if they were still 20, and it was a dream came true.

    Powderfinger's last tour in Caloundra. It was pissing down rain and nobody gave a shit. It was so emotional and so bloody fun. The rain just made it ten times better.

    The Living End's retrospective tour. They played every album in full over several days. It was insane! It was also when I finally met them after six years of waiting and seeing them live.

    Kanye West in November, tied with Conor Oberst at the Newport Folk Festival in 2012. During Oberst's set he was joined on stage by First Aid Kit, Jim James, and Dawes. It was incredible!

    Of Mice & Men, Bring Me the Horizon and Crossfaith. 9th October 2013.
    Crossfaith were the opening act and, can I just say, they were absolutely amazing. Strong stage presence, they really got us going - I was so pumped. They've become one of my favourite bands. I'd really like to see them live again. Of Mice and Men were undoubtedly my favourite act; my friend and I darted through the crowd and ended up right in front of Alan (AKA my favourite member of OM&M). He did the cool guitar swing things. XD But then spat on the crowd, so that was a bit of a turn off. BMTH were a bit of the let down, but still really good. I would relive the night again over and over and never become bored.
